I use the Infragistics WinGrid which is editable by default so that has not been an issue for me. I'm assuming you already resolved how to use the Enter key like a tab key in the controls?

>>So far the only thing which seemed noticeably more convoluted in .net than in vfp was when I created a custom base textbox. I put it on a winform and then I modified the properties and added some code to events. I wanted to take thed control from the form and make a separate new base textbox visually and couldn't.

If there is anything that is guaranteed these days, it is change. But don't worry, I don't think it's that far off to a day when programmers will be obsolete and users and business execs will be designing their own interface and databases with point and click by answering a few simple questions and dragging and dropping their controls on a web form.

You can't set a breakpoint on a value such as a form prop and stop processing in the debugger whenever the value changes from any where in the solution like you can in VFP. That drives me nuts! You can set conditional breaks at a specific point, but that is not the same - not at all)
